John, You are living my dream. That is quite a collection you have! It takes me back to the 80s, when arcades were everywhere. Thanks for the great video!
I've been anxiously refreshing all night for this. Since i read you usually put the videos up on sunday nights. Looking forward to the pac-man restore.
As always dude, great vid and awesome cabinet. You're wanting me to get another cabinet and fix it up.. I've done a MK2 cabinet restore to a MAME cabinet. I'm really wanting to do a Dig Dug or Karate Champ. Anyway, keep up the great work and vids.
The 2nd 1970 is about as far as I could ever go, maybe about 300-325k score. You'll be at that level in a couple weeks, since you own your own cabinet. =)
Thx. Just curious.I loved this game back in the day! I have the GB Advance multi-cart. Konami Collector's Series. Great multi-cart bye the way, has Frogger, Gyruss ,Rush-N-Attack, Scramble,And some Kung-fu type game. Anyway i'am sure the Arcade is the REAL deal. My experience is the Arcades are always the best. OH Yea ,great job on the Time Pilot restore. Long Live Arcades ,,Peace Out...
Only one thing bothers me about the buttons... why do you have red and white for the player start buttons, and a red button for fire? Shouldn't the white be fire and the two reds be player start? :/
Ahhhh, so the guy who wrote Time Pilot is responsible for the death of arcades via Street Fighter lol (UK was just SF cabs hacked into classics in the 90's, I mean wayyy bad conversions). Awesome game, I can't get past UFO's either, I have the Atari Euro version.
Hay shit lol to bad you didn't show us you changing the ram chips my friend may have a ram issue on his DK a fix graphics are missing (elevator Cable ) i want him to see what invalid with soldering (not for everyone)
There's nothing special about an 8-way joystick with circular movement (i.e., circular restrictor). A dime-a-dozen Happ Competition joystick is the same way (like you'll find on Street Fighter II machines). For that matter, bog-standard Wico 8-way joysticks are like that too, if I remember right. A squarish or otherwise not-round restrictor on 8-way joysticks is mostly a Japanese thing (e.g., Sanwa, Seimitsu, Nintendo).
Your getting closer ill just translate form Internet to English. (Laughing out loud! I'm smiling). Yes, it is similar a B-17 bomber. ??????????? I'm smiling.
Yoshiki Okamoto was the creator of Time Pilot. What's even crazier is he was also involved in the creation of Rockstar's Red Dead franchise!
One of my all time fav arcade games

Always constantly impressed with your knowledge of bringing these classic games back to life!

That's a not a bad idea. I know Todd loves his minis!
Favorite 80s game time pilot rocked
No, I wish! A friend of mine did that. That score is over 800k points! That's crazy talk!
Love the old games and the old days, brings back a lot of great memories.
LOL! I never thought of it like that. Yeah, this guy killed the arcades! :D
I finally got to the UFOs on Time Pilot last Friday night. It didn’t take long for me to die once I did.
LOL! :) Yes, it is a b-17 type bomber thing but it's also a mini-boss!! :)
Thanks, pal! Pac restore vid to come next weekend!

That looks like a pretty good game. I guess it wasn't a keeper though since you don't have it in the basement anymore.
The 2nd 1970 is about as far as I could ever go, maybe about 300-325k score. You'll be at that level in a couple weeks, since you own your own cabinet. =)
Still valuable and helpful information.
I still have never made it to the UFO level.... I need to play some more :)

Only one thing bothers me about the buttons... why do you have red and white for the player start buttons, and a red button for fire? Shouldn't the white be fire and the two reds be player start? :/
ITS A FUCKING BOMBER JOHN!
Can't remember on this one. The fire button. Can you hold it DOWN to keep firing.

Contact or look at TNT Amusements for marquee and overlay
John it isn't a mini boss it called a "bomber".
Ehre sei dem Playstation Herrenrasse!

I wonder why Centuri changed the year of stage 4 from 1982 to 1983 - i.imgur.com/uUANYtl.png

Nope! You have to keep hitting it to fire.
Cause that's not correct. The buttons, as I have them, is the correct way. I'm very anal about this type of stuff. :) Gyruss is the same way.

I thought you know about aviation, John.
If you do know anything about it you would call it a bomber, your being a bad helicopter collector right now.
